Hi Dar.  That's exactly the kind of help I will need, step by step.  I'm in
Rodchester MN right now and so now's not a good time for me to call you guys
and have you help me with it.  When I get home, I'm going to be pretty busy
revising my book until I go to D. C.  Can I call you guys and see if we can
get it figured out together if I can't get it figured out any other way
after I get back from D. C.  Dar, you are welcome to call me any time if you
want to talk about anything.  I would love to chat.  My number is 552-9774.
I have service on my phone almost anywhere so call me any time. Have to run
now.  Randi went and bought me some chocolate  and the smell is driving me
nuts.  I'll talk to you soon:)

Hi,
Do give Jim a call, he can help you get set up.
I think you need a number, I haven't done this allot.
Jim can help step by step.
Then as a total as we are, we can down load books.
just memorizing the steps.
